hi, sorry for my english, but I use google translate. I installed the bbpress moderation + moderation tools plugin. I have a problem with the “add user moderation flag” function. Practically if it is added to a user, it can easily publish without any kind of moderation. I can’t understand what the problem is. Can someone help me?

I’m having the same issue. Adding moderation flag doesn’t seem to hold that user’s posts for moderation. Any ideas?

SOLVED: I was able to fix this issue by changing the following setting…

In the WordPress dashboard, go to Settings > Forums
Under “Moderation Options” change moderation from “None” to “Custom”
Then select the “All posts below the English character threshold” option.

Now new users can still post replies/topics without having to be manual approved. But posts from users with a moderation flag will be held for review.

Hope that helps and works for you!
Best, Sam
